If you are a health professional and would like to discuss a patient, the best way to refer to us is as follows.

Emergencies and urgent assessments (0-17 years)

Please telephone the on-call paediatric registrar so that arrangements can be made to see the patient in the correct location:

  • t: 020 3447 9000 (bleep 5301)
  • t: 07940 476 817

In case of emergency, please send the patient to the closest emergency department and let the on-call registrar know so that they are prepared for the patient.
